Ingredients:
For the ribs
- 3lb St Louis Style Spare Ribs
- 1 cup BBQ Sauce of your choice (I used Good food for good – BBQ Sauce Classic)
Rib Dry Rub
- Dry Rub
- 3 tsp chili powder
- 2 tsp paprika
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp cayenne
- 1/4 tsp cumin
- 1/4 tsp white pepper
- Salt and Pepper
For the Potato Salad
- 2lb Yukon Gold Potatoes
- 1 Celery Stalks
- 1/2 red onion – diced
- 3 eggs hard boiled
- 4 tbsp mayo (I used Primal Kitchen Mayo)
- 1 tbsp mustard
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 3 tbsp fresh dill
Method:
For the Ribs
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 275 degrees
Step 2: Remove the membrane of the ribs. This allows for maximum flavour and tender ribs
Step 3: Combine all dry rub ingredients in a bowl and rub all over the ribs
Step 4: Wrap ribs in tin foil and place in preheated oven. Allow to cook for 2-3 hours or until tender
Step 5: Finish the ribs on the grill! Slather the ribs in your favourite BBQ sauce and grill the ribs until the sauce has caramelized
For the Potato Salad
Step 1: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Peel and cube potatoes. Place cubed potatoes in pot of water, sprinkle in salt. Cook until potatoes are tender, use a fork and potatoes should slide right off. Drain and allow to cool
Step 2: While potatoes are cooling, combine mayo, mustard, salt, pepper in a mixing bowl. Add in celery, onion, dill, chopped hard boiled egg, and potatoes
Step 3: For a creamier effect, take a handful of potatoes in a smaller bowl – mash and combine with the rest of the ingredients
Step 4: Taste test – add more salt/pepper/dill if desired
Step 5: Allow to cool a minimum of 30 minutes in the fridge to allow flavours to marry!
